That was fun! On to the next. Jan 21st anyone?

I can confirm a sleet/freezing rain mix on the northwest side of 820. It's coming down pretty good. Sitting at 35.

It is model chaos out there this morning. Normal for our area and winter weather. Nowcasting it'll probably be.

Is this storm fully sampled on shore yet? The amounts in Oregon have already surprised the Mets there. Forecasts have had to be upped several inches for snow. Perhaps it'll be stronger than the models have shown. So wishing for snow.

I'm concerned for the magnolia tree in my front yard, it is starting to droop. I hope that the sleet will save the power infrastructure.

I've got thunder in Saginaw, half sleet/half raindrop pouring from the sky. Edit: I'm concerned that the current mix might accrete faster than either of the p-types alone.

I imagine we will end up somewhere between the two. I've been wondering why the models are struggling so much as well. I thought that the cold air would arrive faster and stronger than what the models advertised but the difference in precipitation is more extreme than normal.

I stayed home today with the kids. Not driving into downtown Fort Worth today from Saginaw. The early release that happens is going to be a disaster. I busted rying to walk from my door to my car. Report from the TCCD NW campus with water icing over quickly enough that if you stood there your shoes would try to stick to the sidewalk.

Here on the NW side of the metroplex the temperature has already fallen to 34. Cold has come in faster than forecast.

Snowing in Saginaw now. Pretty even if its falling after dark.

Got a report from my family on the Hughes/Seminole county line OK that they are now getting all snow.

I'm watching it. Temps aren't looking great for us.

Almost too good to be true... Down to 22 on NW side of DFW.
